Bug#637684: debian-installer: grub-install fails with "grub-probe: cannot find a GRUB drive" due to missing proc directory
Package: debian-installer
Severity: important
This problem was observed with the installer shipped in Aug 13th's
http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/daily-builds/daily/arch-latest/amd64/iso-cd
/debian-testing-amd64-netinst.iso.
The grub installation step failed with:
"grub-probe: cannot find a GRUB drive for /dev/mapper/vg0-root"
Manually mounting proc in /target/proc and re-running the grub install step
fixes the problem.
